What was your favorite subject in school?

I went to a yeshiva where the boys and girls weren’t in the same class. During recess we would gather together and flirt. Well, I don’t know if they flirted but I tried. Not with words but by showing off my punch ball expertise and talking loudly.

Little did I know they would’ve been more attracted to me if I was less loud and acted cooler.

This was me until I was around 28, divorced with 2 kids. I learned to listen and to be calm. Well, I learned to listen, I still haven’t learned to be calm. But that’s me. I realized all I have to do is learn the lesson from my favorite subject in school. Recess.

Don’t try to stand out, just be yourself in a filtered way. In my case, relax.

It worked.

Been married for over 25 years with 5 kids and 2 grandchildren.

I still don’t know how to be calm. I guess I need to go back to school
